Mexico City, Mexico

Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence

For more than two decades, Au Pied de Cochon has anchored French cuisine in Polanco, Mexico City's most formally appointed dining neighbourhood.

The Palm Mexico City-Polanco

Mexico City, Mexico

Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence

The Palm on Campos Elíseos brings a particular strain of American steakhouse tradition to Polanco, one that predates the farm-to-table era and has no interest in pretending otherwise. Dark wood, dim lighting, and a menu anchored in prime cuts and whole lobster position it as a deliberate counterpoint to Mexico City's contemporary dining scene. For those who return regularly, the draw is precisely that nothing changes.
